I/O scheduler for XFS

After the failure that is BTRFS for large capacity disks (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=272376), I have decided to move the disk to XFS but I have a doubt about the IO Scheduler to use on that disk.
I have read this: https://xfs.org/index.php/XFS_FAQ#Q:_Wh … for_XFS.3F but that answer is obsolete because single-queue schedulers were removed from kernel since Linux 5.0.
In this case which would be the best I/O Scheduler to use: mq-deadline, bfq or none?

Re: I/O scheduler for XFS

Why don't you run some benchmarks and find out for yourself?
